Popis
Shell of small size (2-3 mm), solid, usually depressed, spire with 3-4 whorls. Protoconch smooth, between 1-2 whorls (most frequently 1,75), not elevated. Teleoconch with strong spiral cords crossed by strong axial ribs. External lip crenulated. Aperture subtrigonal. Operculum ovoid, paucispiral and chitinous. According to FRETTER & GRAHAM (1978) and GOFAS, PINTO AFONSO & BRAND AO (1985), the true Tornus live deeply buried in sand under stones, but they need clean sand through which the water circulates and allows good oxygenation.
